v t e ENS Event

Title	Containment Inoperable Due to Interlock Doors Open Simultaneously
Event Description	This report is being made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(C), event or condition that could have prevented fulfillment of a safety function needed to control the release of radioactive material and 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(D), event or condition that could have prevented fulfillment of a safety function needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident. LaSalle's Station Unit 1 was in Mode 1 and Unit 2 was in Mode 5 for its scheduled refuel outage. There was no movement of irradiated fuel or CORE ALTERATIONS at the time. OPDRVs [Operations with Potential to Drain the Reactor Vessel] were in progress in the secondary containment on Unit 2. An employee entered a secondary containment interlock and identified that both doors of the interlock opened simultaneously when the door on the reactor building side was opened. The employee immediately secured both doors in the interlock and notified the main control room supervisor. Both doors in the interlock were open for somewhere between 5-10 seconds. With both doors open, TS SR 3.6.4.1.2 was not met and this rendered secondary containment inoperable per TS 3.6.4.1. Reactor building differential pressure, in the main control room, was never observed to be less than -0.25 inches of water column. Initial investigation determined that the interlock for the doors was malfunctioning. Administrative controls have been put in place to ensure the doors remain closed pending repairs to the interlock. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.
